When I think about ads, I think about Google's paper [0], which allows multiple self-interested LLMs bid for possible ad-spots in the prompt, which is just a different flavor of what we have today.
As noted on the thread, a good ML model can do better, with less. I can use that kind of recommendation system for discovering my alternatives for a given item/tech/whatever, on demand.
But current crop of LLMs, with a strong leaning for embedding seamless ads into prompt responses, a double no. No, because I don't agree on how training data is stol ^H^H^H^H collected from wider internet and everything, another no for unsolicited ads.
I'll continue using Kagi and being a luddite, thanks.

- ChrisMarshallNY 1y agoI guess I should clarify that I want a broker, not unsolicited ads. If LLMs can become true brokers, that would be great, but the pressure to corrupt would be tremendous. Not sure if we’ll ever get there, though. I have hope. The broker model is centuries old. It’s really a solved problem. The issue is that the current generation is notoriously bad at learning from history.
- bayindirh 1y agoYeah, I understand where you're coming from, and I agree, LLMs can be good brokers if they can be kept reliable. > The issue is that the current generation is notoriously bad at learning from history. On top of that, the same people think they can just move to another planet and survive by eating money there.
